Fall Favorites

Fall has arrived! We asked Etsy Metal members to share what they love most about the season as well as a piece of Fall inspired jewelry! Enjoy!

2 Roses:
Fall always reminds John of his childhood when his Uncle and Dad would
take him out to the woods on the reservation and the still where they
made moonshine liquor. He would help them fill up the false gas tank in
his dad's hot-rodded 1956 Ford Fairlane with the "shine". The three of
them then would set out on a night long shine-run across rural Indiana
and Ohio making deliveries as they went. Barreling lights out down back
country roads at well over 100 miles per was great adventure for a 10
year old boy, and sometimes they would let him drive.

Fall reminds me of the stunning colors that surrounded me 2 Octobers ago
spent in New England. I just don't see much of those orange-yellow-red
colors here in California. But that's OK because this subtropical gal
will never survive even one of those New England winters.

LjBjewelry:
I grew up in Connecticut and the fall there was always so beautiful, the
leaves changing colors, blowing around in the wind, the big pile of
leaves we would make on the front lawn after raking them up, I miss that
a lot, and of course the holidays that come with the fall season.

annewalkerjewelry:
The other day at school, my five-year-old daughter had to complete the
sentence "What I like most about fall is..." And she said "picking up
pretty leaves." (I like doing this too!) She likes to make leaf
bouquets, which we bring inside to decorate our table. She also likes to
make pretend salads with leaves in her playhouse.

TheSilverPearl:
I love running in the mountains in the fall, with snow dusting the peaks
and fiery colors on the slopes and the smell of leaf mold underfoot.
Running and apple pie. My apple pie is to die for.

quercussilver:I studied English at Uni and I loftily despised the romantic poets then.
Now, years later, I love to wallow in the rich language of John Keats
"Ode to Autumn". It reminds me of the beautiful orchards of Somerset,
where I live. Here's the start:

Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness! Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun; Conspiring with him how to load and bless With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eaves run; To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees, And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core; To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells

lsueszabo:
Fall is my favorite season. we got married in October in New England at
a 17th century inn, in the forest. It was beautiful. I live in a
deciduous hickory and oak forest now. It's just starting to get some
color and lots of these guys....
